I’m not a fan of her music, far too frilly and light-pop for my tastes, but I admire her stance on equality and her attitude. In a world where ‘gay’, ‘queer’, ‘lezzer’, ‘dyke’, ‘poof’ and more are still considered insults, it’s refreshing to see someone who is very much in the public eye taking a position like this.

I do think there needs to be care on using an I-wish-dar on her rather than a gaydar – I don’t know how she has identified, nor does she ever need to do so, but if she says she’s straight I’d prefer it if people would stop assuming otherwise.

After all, those of us who are LGBT hate it when folks assume we are straight, and that has to go both ways.

I have a sneaking suspicion I am far too much of a curmudgeon to appreciate her music, but I like how she refuses to play whatever puritan “good girl” game the media probably wants her to play.

I’ve never been a fan of her music or even followed her career at all but I do appreciate things like this. We have to break that tradition of people being “accused” of being gay as something to be angry about as if it was accusing them of being a rapist or something. If more people treat it like a compliment it will help to dispell that whole mindset :)

I’m making over $7k a month working part time. I kept hearing other people tell me how much money they can make online so I decided to look into it. Well, it was all true and has totally changed my life. This is what I do… D­a­y3­7.ℂ­ℴ­M

Never heard her music but I’m a major fan. A beautiful, pot-smoking, open-minded lesbian? ( Oh, and rich, but that’s optional for Goddesses.) I dont listen, though. Afraid her music might suck bone and spoil it for me.
